Can you elaborate on the powerful imagery used in Chapter 16 to describe Sai Baba's ability to destroy worldly attachments?

Chapter 16 employs very strong imagery to convey Sai Baba's divine power over illusion. He is depicted wielding a "sharp blade of the sword of Knowledge." The text powerfully states that the mere sight of His hand raised to strike with this sword causes the "tree of worldly existence (Bhav-vriksha)" to tremble in fear. This metaphor illustrates his absolute capacity to sever the roots of attachment to material life and Maya-illusion, a core aspect of his role as the Guru who leads devotees to liberation.
